Comments (2)From what I understand the L shaped halls are both 18 feet in length. One L has an entrance door across from a window & opening to a balcony balcony and 3 bedroom doors staggered on both sides and the other L is connected to an open kitchen. The window-balcony area sounds beautiful and that is the focal point for that part of the hallway. These hall floors and walls are going to receive a lot of use and abuse from those going to & from bedrooms and kitchen. The flooring should be of good quality so it will stand up to the heavy traffic. Carpeting, hard wood, slate or tile: it's your choice but again quality is key. Carpeting in the hall helps decrease noise & is soft underfoot and I would choose carpeting. I like a plain color, with a pattern cut pile so it does not show wear and tear. I've had good luck with Stainmaster. I would train myself and family members to remove shoes & wear slippers in the house. This will help keep carpet clean. http://stainmaster.com/page/our-carpets/styles/pattern-cut-pile The walls will receive hard use, too, so they might be painted in a quality washable paint (eggshell?). Long halls can look a little tunnel-like: place a wall-art at the end of any long hall. The wall art at the end of the hall will seem to shorten the tunnel-effect and will make the hall more interesting. Choose a rather large piece of art that is bright and cheery. Here is a photo You could also buy a wall decal for the end of the hall: you place the decal on the wall and it also comes off with no residue. This decal is large bright and fun, but this company (& other decal companies) have many to choose from http://dalidecals.com/Framed-Wild-Flowers-Printed-Wall-Decals-Stickers-Graphics.html It seems people will be passing the bedrooms on the way to the kitchen quite often. If you're having guests, think of keeping the bedroom doors closed, in case the bedrooms are a mess. ;-)...See Moreworking to desin my dining table
Comments (2)OK Rahul, your going to need to be more specific than this. Can you send pictures of the room this table is going to be in - does this room connect with a kitchen, or hallway? Photos of those rooms too please, and, what does your dishware look like that is going to sit on this table when you have company over? Photo of that as well. then we get into patterns, colours, textures, dimension, theme, style etc. May I suggest you find an interesting pattern that you must have - this will depict the intricate detail of the pattern needed - check out Sicis.com excellent italian mosaic tile company that will help to inspire your vision for your table. Then google "black and white abstract shapes-patterns", this will help you choose what shapes, patterns you want in your mosaic. Some photos to show you how extensive this is - and you need to give more guidance as to your personal style and preferences before we can help you further. Good Luck!

Comments (21)Perhaps a large round table might mean a rug is not at all necessary. It could be a metal tray table, or carved wood like Rebecca Mitchell Interiors illustrates. Ideas also to consider, using multiple tables can be found at http://www.houzz.com/multiple-coffee-tables. I also agree with comments above that some color is needed on the walls. You could then hang round mirrors, or an unusual curved shape like RMI shows above....See MoreNot sure on how to get open kitchen with wall betwen drawing, kitchen
Comments (8)Hi Option 1 As suggested by Cornerstone above. This way the TV will be visible from dining too Option 2 Move TV to the corner of the entrance wall, next to the window, placed at 45 degree angle. The L shaped sofa can then go to the diagonally opposite corner. The wall can be a see through book shelf/crockery shelf. This is better as the visitors have some inviting empty space as soon as they walk in instead of a sofa. Option 3 TV in current position, but instead of the TV being mounted on wall, perhaps have an open shelf (like below)...See Morewhaas_5a
